Historically a part of Lancashire, the urbanization and expansion of Liverpool were largely brought about by the city's status as a major port. Inhabitants of Liverpool are referred to as Liverpudlians but are also known as "Scousers", in reference to the local dish known as "scouse", a form of stew.
The popularity of The Beatles and the other groups from the Merseybeat era contributes to Liverpool's status as a tourist destination; tourism forms a significant part of the city's modern economy.
The University is mainly based around a single urban campus approximately five minutes walk from Liverpool City Center, at the top of Brownlow Hill and Mount Pleasant. The two main university accommodation complexes are both located in the Mossley Hill district of Liverpool.
